The verdict

Warehouse runs at 302% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Agricultural chemicals merchant wholesalers workplace, earning a grade F.

Warehouse: 6.6 TCR = 302% of Agricultural chemicals merchant wholesalers BLS 2.2 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Warehouse safety composite

Warehouse scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 74% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 20%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
